Frequently asked questions

ANSWERS FOR THE ROAD AHEAD.

General information to prepare for an individualized case review.

How many repairs do I need before my vehicle may qualify?

Requirements vary by state, the nature of the defect, the number of repair attempts, and how long the car has been out of service. Keep every repair order for review.

Can a leased vehicle qualify?

A leased vehicle may have Lemon Law or warranty rights. Eligibility depends on state law, the lease, the warranty and the facts.

What if my dealer says the problem is normal?

Ask the dealership to record the symptoms and your complaint on each repair order. The dealer’s characterization does not, by itself, decide whether you have a claim.

Does the law cover recurring electrical or battery problems?

A range of significant defects may be relevant, including electrical or battery problems. The specific history and applicable law control.

Could a used vehicle qualify?

Used vehicles may have warranty-related remedies in some situations. Age, mileage, warranty terms, and purchase history matter.

Can I still drive my car while a claim is reviewed?

Possibly, but safety issues must be evaluated first. Follow manufacturer safety notices and obtain advice about your particular vehicle.

Do I have to keep every repair order?

Yes, whenever possible. Repair orders help establish dates, mileage, the reported defect, the dealership’s work and time out of service.

What outcomes may be available?

Depending on the law and claim, possibilities may include a manufacturer repurchase, replacement vehicle or cash settlement. Results cannot be promised.

Is a free case review really free?

Bad Vehicle offers an initial case review at no cost. Any attorney-fee arrangement should be confirmed in the written engagement agreement.

Will I work directly with an attorney?

Bad Vehicle emphasizes direct communication with Jonathan D. Schwartz for Lemon Law and warranty matters.

What if I already contacted the manufacturer?

Keep those communications, claim numbers and any written proposals. They can provide useful context during a review.

What should I have ready for the consultation?

Year, make, model, purchase or lease documents, warranty information, repair history, days out of service and a concise description of the issue.
